Braun (KF7170SI) Brew Sense 12-Cup Drip Coffee Maker Reviews

I haven't found anything I dislike about this coffee maker. This is the best coffee maker I have ever owned. I don't know why I haven't bought a Braun before now. It also makes the best cup of coffee I have ever had. Amazing machine!

I got this to replace a very basic coffee maker we'd had for years, and it's been nice so far. It takes conical filters that we had to buy (we didn't want to use the permanent one it comes with because we didn't want to wash coffee grounds into our septic field, but if you're on sewer or don't care, then even better, you won't have to buy filters!). The very first step I took after turning it on and getting the initial setup complete (clock, etc), was hit that nice "Brew Strength" button. Bold is the way to go! It makes very flavorful and bold coffee, which is awesome, and I love that we can adjust the temperature too, which I'm still deciding which way I like it. Hot is too much for me, but the two other settings are both a good drinkable temperature, and it won't cool down too quickly on the middle setting so I think that's where we'll keep it. The timed brewing is nice too, and easy to figure out once I took a moment to read the instructions, and it works great. I haven't tested pulling the coffee pot out while it's brewing to pour a cup, so I'm not sure how much it'll drip then, but I have noticed that it doesn't drip or spill as easily as our last coffee pot when pouring into a mug. The shape is apparently effective at preventing that, it seems, which is really nice. Also, I've noticed that it lets a few coffee grounds through into the pot sometimes, which is a little annoying, but less than our previous one, so maybe that's something every coffee maker has to deal with. It makes enough coffee for about 3 days worth of drinking in our family too, so we only brew every few days and just leave it in the pot for later. Haven't tried seeing if the coffee maker would warm it back up instead of microwaving it. Overall, a very nice coffee maker we're glad to have! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I have never owned a Braun coffee maker but I'm so glad I now do! It's very modern looking and looks complicated, but it's so easy to operate. It allows you to program it 24 hours in advance so you can wake up to fresh hot coffee! You can select your brew strength if you like stronger or weaker coffee. Can also set temperature on the warming plate so your coffee is exactly the way you like. It automatically shuts off after 2 hours but you can extend that time. One great thing about this coffee maker is the self clean, it will let you know when it's time to clean it! Couldn't be any easier! Has a water filter inside which you change every two months but it's not required for operation. I love the water filter because the area I live in has very hard water, and this helps tremendously! There is a gold permeant filter so you can use as is or use disposable filters whichever you prefer. The instructions included are so easy to understand I had my first cup of coffee in a matter of minutes; I recommend this to anyone who wants to enjoy a great cup of coffee!

This coffee maker is awesome! Not only does it look amazing but it makes the perfect cup of coffee. I absolutely love the design and style of this coffee maker.. its modern and looks great in the kitchen. Its programmable so you can set it ahead of time which is so convenient and useful. I like that it is easy to use and the buttons are fairly big so you can easily read them. The antidrip system is really cool especially since i'm not super patient and I like to grab a cup before the coffee is even done. I've never had a coffee maker with a gold tone filter but i'm thinking that that makes a difference. My coffee just tasted so extra and delicious! This coffee maker is easy to clean and wipe down. I definitely recommend. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
